Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the possibility of viral infection causing enteritis is higher. Viral enteritis does not require the use of antibiotics. For bacterial enteritis, antibiotics should be determined based on the pathogen, or adjusted according to the results of drug sensitivity tests. It is recommended to try Er Xie Ting Granules, which is primarily used for treating pediatric diarrhea caused by damp-heat accumulation, characterized by watery or egg-drop soup-like stools, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and fever. It is recommended to try Er Xie Ting Granules. Prognosis depends on the cause, nutritional status, and timeliness of treatment. Poor prognosis is associated with antibiotic resistance, pathogenic Escherichia coli or fungal-induced nausea and vomiting; whereas viral enteritis has a good prognosis. We hope this explanation is helpful to you.
